+++++ South Carolina vs Boogs (HYGs) Official Game Thread +++++

[MomentInTheSun]

Wow. Really need this one gang. Two shitty performances in a row on the road and two big ole Ls. Don't know what to say really or have too many ideas on how to fix these sluggish offensive performances but hopefully Bruce does. The good news is USC sucks. And this game is at the Clam. Can't take any conference opponent lightly obviously, but a home game against a bottom dweller is kind of what this hagard squad needs. So, please God, let the Boogs bounce back and get the boog swag going again.

Boogs 87 USC 70

They got a couple nice dubs in a row. Boogs are the superior squad but as always I hate this matchup with S Carolina. Last couple aren’t helping my confidence level. That being said I take the boogs to pull out the win.

We should beat the breaks off this scrub team if our Boogs have any fight in them. They should be mad and embarrassed as hell at the way they played the last 2 games. Hopefully Bruuuce is telling them see I told you you are not as good as you think you are and now the whole basketball world is saying see I told you so (overhyped avg team that played a weak non-conf schedule). It’s us against the world now.

That said, I am a little worried about our mental state right now. I will admit I started following most of the team on IG and up until the bama game there was a lot of look at us and how good we are, which is fine, but now there is a lot of don’t follow me, don’t tag me and don’t disrespect me and call yourself part of the family now that we have lost a few. I agree with that mindset. If you ain’t with us now, then be gone. What worries me is that some on the team seem to be way more worried about their IG following and what people are saying vs. ignoring the haters and actually trying to get better. Not calling anyone out specifically, but some seem to be focused on the wrong thing at this point in the season. Anyone else get that feeling and seeing the same stuff?

We have hit a rough patch. We all knew at some point we would lose a few. I’m still a believer in this team and I think this next game will be the one that we look back at and say this is the game that changed our season.

Boogs - 84
Usce - 68

In all honesty we need to win the next 3 to still look like a respectable club. And USCe is riding a hot hand after beating UK and A&M. They’ll come in with confidence. We better step the fvck up or we’ll be in for a rude ride the rest of the year.

This is what happens when you go to a Tony Barbee style uniform

 

[MomentInTheSun]

sorry gang. Forgot to show you what the nerds at the espn data center have to say. Clearly, they like the Boogs in this one

 

[Van Gorstache]

74-66. Per usual, Frank will make this one uggaly. Rough shooting start for the boogs turns around in the second half with a glut of free throws and then the shots start falling.

 

[Slippin Jimmy]

Certainly glad that fugly Silva child is gone

 

[Tiger Hoops Guy]

A nice double digit win would go a long way to calm the football-minded Boog masses. Seen a lot of boogs pretty much give in on this team which of course is nonsensical. I’m chalking up last week’s nightmare to a combination of lost confidence, cold shooting, and quite frankly an aberration. The warm friendly confines of Pearl Arena should do the trick and get this squad back on track

This is mostly correct. We have a tough 4 game sled after those 3 and it feels like we need to get confidence in order to have any chance of getting through the UK/Arky/LSU/bama run. 3 of those 4 are at home and really we need to gain the confidence to feel like we can win at least 2/3 there.

The SEC is wild this year. I'm not sure how good anyone is but I'm pretty sure just about anyone can win or lose 9 out of 10 at this point. If you lose your head or get a few injuries to the wrong person you are wrecked. If you get hot and feel good about yourself you can go on a big run. It's wide open

Another Boog open letter:
Dear HYGS,
It’s @FormerlyKnownAsSOLLY birthday & the only shit he got was a generic card from the local bank (happy it wasn’t a foreclosure). Please make this his best birthday ever & bring home this DUB.
In BRUCE’S name,
Amen

Their win @TAMU could be argued as more impressive than beating UK. The reason I say this is that I do believe in the 'post UK letdown game'. UK fans are quick to point to (specifically after taking a loss) that everyone ups their level when playing them, which is true to a degree, even though I think it is really only when a team hosts the cats. So when a team like the cawks take them at home in front of an amped crowd I expect them to fall flat when they follow that game on the road. I'm not sure TAMU is anything to write home about but they are much improved under Buzz Williams so winning there given the circumstances was impressive to me.

 

[Harvey Specter]

Gonna be hard to feel comfortable about a game again until we see some semblance of an offense

Boogs -10.5. Steep line

Been in a panic looking for this battle & just now realized it’s tomorrow

 

[MomentInTheSun]

[Space Funk Booty]

Somehow this team ranks in the bottom third in the nation at shooting yet against UVA put up 70

 

[Lover of Pearl]

-11 to the boogs now..

 

[Harvey Specter]

I was just thinking that it feels like our Wednesday night games are always at 8:00. Nice to be able to tune in at 6:00

 

[AuWaterfowl]

I'm leaving work after lunch and heading to the game. It'll be my first one of this year.

They made 16/30 3s in their last game against TAMU. I’ll die if this raggedy ass prison squad comes in the Clam and makes more than 5.

 

[MomentInTheSun]

t minus two hours till game time gents. Get your supplies in order and get ready to see the 3s rain down in the clam

Man that shot of Bruce arms folded, ‘Deal with it’ in the background is perfection. New avi.

CP cover boy circa 1999 a nice touch as well.

[MomentInTheSun]
